Our Team
Practice History
In 2000 Dr. Eric Shreder and Dr. Jason Frye took over Community Family Medicine in Gilbert and renamed the new practice Lakeview Family Medicine. Being right on the lake at Val Vista and Baseline they were one of only a few family practices in the area.
From 2000 to 2007 Lakeview Family Medicine was prospering and was outgrowing the current building and limited room available. Lakeview had added a mid-level provider and had a patient base in the thousands.
In 2007 Pierpont Family Medicine was created to replace Lakeview Family Medicine because the practice moved down the road away from Val Vista Lake. We moved into a larger brand new facility we had built out to our specifications in Mesa adding space and a much needed facelift to the practice.
From 2007 to 2014 Pierpont Family Medicine continued to grow and add on new services and continued our quality medical care for patients. Our patient base grew and as we did more and more exciting new things for our patients and it became harder to let them all know about it.
So the idea started in 2014 when we decided marketing our unique skills to the community was an important focus. We did not want to be known as just another Family Practice, we wanted to let our current and prospective patients know we were much more. But Pierpont Family Medicine did not convey our expertise in hormone replacement therapy, allergies, joint injections, Botox, sports medicine, dermatology, diabetes, etc. We needed a new name to let people know they would receive an all-encompassing medical care home from a trusted provider and competent staff.
2015 Full Circle Health emerges as a re-branding of Pierpont Family Medicine. For years we did a good job taking care of patients through insurance. As insurance reimbursement went down we began to position ourselves as an office that did more than a typical family practice. So now we can promote our anti-aging, facial rejuvenation, body contouring, and skin tightening to an audience that will take notice, all the while continuing to provide the best family medical care.
While our doctors can continue to provide the highest quality of care we added on some fun services like Coolsculpting, Ultherapy, and botox. Botox Cosmetics without taking too much time from their busy patient load. Also added to the team was a full time Nutritionist and life coach to help us treat our weight loss patients even better.
In 2016 we added a full time aesthetician to help grow that aspect of the business. We also added Laser technology so our aesthetician has a full menu of amazing services to help patients get the results they want and need. We can perform Laser Hair Reduction, Laser Scar Reduction, Laser Skin Renewal, Laser Stretch Mark Reduction, and Laser Skin Revitalization (IPL).
2017 the grand opening of Full Circle Wellness next door to the main building. It was our dream since 2014 was to have our own separate entrance and space to do all our ancillary services. We needed more space to take care of the growing populations of aesthetics, weight loss, hormones and FAA pilot patients. So we built our a beautify facility for those non-insurance type of visits. We also added vaginal rejuvenation, ablative resurfacing and RF for the body.
We have a lot more fun surprises in mind as we grow and evolve and while insurance is not out only focus it will remain a main focus as we move forward towards an exciting future.
OUR SUPPORT TEAM

Tonya was born in Illinois and later moved to Texas where she began her career in the booming tech industry. In 1993, she was transferred to Arizona. Not long after moving to Arizona, she felt like something was missing in her life and wanted a change.
She began working as a daycare supervisor which enabled her to spend more time with her own young children. She quickly learned that she has an empathetic heart and a strong desire to help people. Tonya returned to school in 2002 to become a Medical Assistant and began working in a medical office, assisting the doctor in implementing a successful weight loss program. This inspired her in 2005 to become a Certified Life Coach and in 2016 she completed courses to become a Certified Nutritionist. Over the last 13+ years, Tonya has helped many practices to implement successful weight loss clinics and has helped to inspire many patients to achieve their weight loss goals.
Tonya also has over 16 years working with the FAA and directly with pilots. There is not a situation or problem she can’t solve when it comes to FAA paperwork and requirements.
It is evident in the close relationships Tonya has built with patients and pilots that her passion is in helping them meet their life goals and offer support to them in any way she can. Her caring personality and empathy are truly an asset to the practice.
